Omg, this book was INTENSE! A bit dark and twisted, but filled with so much passion. Not the sweetest kind, maybe, slightly on the wrong, toxic side, Omg, this book was INTENSE! A bit dark and twisted, but filled with so much passion. Not the sweetest kind, maybe, slightly on the wrong, toxic side, but passion non the less. This story was so gritty and complex, and I had moments I found it hard to sympathize with some emotions, others that frustrated me, but it was all so vividly written that I I couldn't stop caring for these characters, about their pasts, present and definitely about their future.
Get ready for raw, refreshingly unique, dynamic, angsty, painful and beautiful. I loved it!...more

There are five main characters in Sicarii: Marcel, Ben, Jacob, young Sam and the villain, Yvette. What I really appreciated was that the author offered all of theirs points of view, with great insight into their feelings and motivation.
Well, having Marcel's point of view didn't really help understand him better, but I was no less completely fascinated with him. Cold, almost inhumanely unfeeling and manipulative, yet it seemed that all his machinations were intended to help Sam, Ben and Jacob brake their barriers of fear. He had a way of transforming his appearance from easygoing to scary and imposing in the blink of an eye, to instill admiration, fear and hate at the same time...kudos to the author for managing that. And while I might not have agreed with Marcel's methods, I have to admit that in a twisted way he helped, or rather forced, Ben and Jacob learn to stand up for themselves. Sam, too.
Sicarii had a darker edge, for sure, definitely gritty, raw and laced with a heavy dose of intense fear. It showed sides of humanity at its worst, revenge, violence, mind games, despair and hate, but Ben and Jacob's love for each other, and Sam's sweetness shined through the ugliness. I loved everything about this story, every powerful emotion that it put me through. Just LOVED IT!...more
